Rick Takahashi has been tying flies for over sixty-five years; he enjoys sharing with others what he learned about fly tying and fly fishing.

"I love to tie and design fly patterns for the waters that I fish. I have been tying flies since I was eight years of age. After taking apart my first fly (Royal Coachman) and seeing the hackle unwind, I knew that I wanted to learn how to tie flies. I didn’t have the slightest idea what a fly was but knew it was for fishing because of the hook. A couple of years later, my uncle bought me my first fly tying kit and I have been tying flies ever since."
